Veggies. We are all looking for creative and delicious ways to get more of them into our diets. And definitely ways to get more veggies into our kids’ diets. Believe it or not, veggie-loaded muffin recipes are a great vessel for vegetables and are a favorite snack and/or breakfast of many kiddos! They are often easy to whip up, simple to store, are perfectly portioned out for you and super handy to have for those (inevitable) mornings when a grab-and-go breakfast is needed! Yep, veggie-loaded muffin recipes are the bee’s knees, in my book. Here are some tried-and-true, kid-approved, veggie-packed muffin recipes for you to keep on hand

1. Oatmeal Green Smoothie Muffins

The ultimate vegetable muffins recipe, this is THE recipe to start with! Deeply loved by children (and adults) of all ages, you might be surprised about how delicious these green muffins are! Mixed entirely in your blender, healthy baking doesn’t get much easier than these muffins. Naturally gluten free when you use gluten free oats, they are also dairy-free and can be easily made egg-free.

If you feel like your little (or big) one will be iffy about eating these beauties based on their color, I *highly* recommend bringing your kiddo into the kitchen to help you cook them. When children are involved in cooking the food they eat, they instant become more interested and invested in it. Also, don’t feel like you HAVE to put all of the recommended spinach in your first batch. Low and slow. Have the kids add just a few leaves of spinach into the batter and let them see how much they enjoy it. Then, add more the next go around! Slowly but surely, your family will fall head over heels in love with these veggie-loaded muffins!
